City Secrets

Forego the tourist-trodden itineraries in your typical travel book and pick up a guide from the carefully curated City Secrets series (amazon.com). These compact, discerning little books, edited by architect Robert Kahn, offer a true insider's guide to places like Florence, Rome, London and New York with tips from the artists, writers, chefs, curators and historians who know these cities best (11 Pulitzer prize recipients, ten Oscar winners and six MacArthur Geniuses among them). The result: A host of things to see and do that are truly off the beaten path.
